Hey, it's okay Firelily! My friends hate each other too- it's annoying! I wish sometimes I was erased from everyone's memories- a new chance, 'cause I see myself as annoying and a disturbance to the family, since I barely help with anything. Sometimes I do cry until there are no tears left- panic attacks and mental breakdowns happen on a daily basis for me...
but remember, we will always be here for you. there are always people who will care for you, give you a new home...
sometimes I think about running away...
about going in the woods and being alone...
about a place where i can safely be...
but then i think of my family...and where i'm gonna survive...and everyone i love...
everyone...
just remember, I will always be here for you. forever. and. always.

Gosh, I feel you on this. I don't really have any good advice other than (for is going to sound stupid lol) just don't be too hard on yourself. If you need a break, take a break. Not everything has to be perfect. <3

If anything could summarize my feelings in an average day, this would be it. I always have too much to do and instead of starting anything I push it all away. I'm not going to say I know exactly how you feel, but I will give you one piece of advice that works for me: ignore everything distracting you (friends, appearences, etc) at least temporarily, and then make a list of everything you have to do. Start with the one that seems easiest to do, and hopefully it will get easier from there. This is just a method that works for me, you might be different, so apologies if this didn't work for you. Sending good vibes towards you <3 <3 <3

Ok, this isn't as serious as anyone else who's here, but I do have one thing I kind of figure that I'll tell.
So I frequently get really scared and worked up about my future. I will notice one thing someone else is doing that I'm not, like a sport, and I'll think that they will succeed in life and I won't. And I always am scared that my grades aren't good enough, I don't know what job I want, or other stuff like that. And then I think that I'm never going to live a good life.
Yeah, that's all. Not too bad but just a little problem I have.
(March 14, 2021 - 5:24 am)
I often feel the same way. Like there's too much to do, so little time, how does everyone else have time to plan out their future?

Hallo! I'm here to rant/ask for some advice.
Okay just ask for advice, I don't feel like spilling today.
Is thirteen the right time to focus on getting into college, or is it too early?
(March 14, 2021 - 3:09 pm)
I would say it's probably too early to be seriously concerned about college, but it is reasonable to have it at the back of your mind. It depends what specifically you mean by "focus on getting into college." Here's what I mean:
Should you be freaking out because you didn't get the grade you wanted and what if it keeps me from getting into college? No. Absolutely not. You have plenty of time to be worried about that later on, and colleges aren't going to be looking at your grades from this point anyway.
Should you be spending all your free time reading about colleges and planning which ones you want to go to? I mean, if you want to? But your plans and interests can and probably will change in the next four years, and you don't need to be terribly concerned about specific colleges at this point.
Should you be keeping in mind what classes you need to take for college when you decide which classes to register for this year? Yes, probably, but don't stress about it too terribly much.
Does that help?

Hi,
I know that I said I would be here but then some stuff happened. I'm sorry that I never had the chance to officially say goodbye. I feel like this is more of a confession so it doesn't really deserve its own thread. So here it is:
Back when all of the NaNo stuff happened I was getting into the CB more and more and it was great. This is also my first year in high school and it took over my life very quickly but I wanted to have more time for the CB.
Unfortunatly I cannot have both.
I love this website so much, it got me through some rough patches in my life and it let me explore different parts of myself that I never really considered. Lately it became a trigger.
I unknowingly was making my mental health worse and worse by doing so many different things that it eventually became too much. I would leave here for a period of time and then come back and there were so many posts that it was overwhelming. I love that it is an active website but it became too much for me.
I tried to take on a new name: Duck. I wanted to give myself a clean slate like I was doing in real life. This used to be an escape for me. My old school wasn't the best for me and I am so glad that I am at a new school. I wanted to be this happy personality and Moonlight seemed a bit too heavy.
For those of you who knew me on Kyngdom I am so sorry that I never was there. I tried but I just couldn't
To the Admins: thank you for making this amazing creative space possible. You guys are so special and I hope you know how much we all apreciate you. I will miss you.
Thank you all for being the most supportive people ever. You all are so special and I hope that you keep creating new worlds with no limit except your imagination.
For the last time,
Moonlight/Duck
(March 14, 2021 - 5:54 pm)
Aww, Duck <33
I'll miss you a lot, but if you need to leave you should. I'm glad that we've helped you in some way, and if you need anything you can always come back for a day.
Also, I remember that on NaNo we figured out that we live really close by each other. Maybe someday we'll see each other irl. I hope so. :)
*hugs* <33

Hey.
I don't know very much about you and that makes me feel guilty
but if you need to leave then do whats right for you.
(March 16, 2021 - 7:20 am)
We'll really miss you, Duck, but I'm glad you know what's best for you! It was really nice to get to know you better on NaNo, and I hope that you'll visit every once in a while! Sending positive vibes your way! <3

I think my friends hate me.
We got in trouble for doing something–I wasn't aware of the full situation, and I thought they had given me plausible deniability, so I said that I didn't know what had happened.
And now I know for sure that at least one of them is really mad at me.
I think the suckiest part about it is that even if they said to me 'no, we stick together', and I hadn't misunderstood, I probably still would've thrown them under the bus. I don't know what to do now.
(March 16, 2021 - 5:58 pm)
Even though your post isn't that recent, I will try to give you what little advice I have gathered during my years on this planet we call Earth.
It's ok if you don't want to get in trouble sometimes, even if it means risking your friends. That doesn't make you a bad person. Honestly, if I were in that situation, I probably would have done the same thing you did. I think the most important thing is to apologize to your friends. Even if they're still mad at you, they will *hopefully* see this as a gesture of peace. If they don't accept your apology right away, don't decide to hate them. Give them a little space to fume, and when they're ready, they will probably forgive you. I'm not a fan of the phrase "forgive and forget," but I think you should try to forgive and move past this. If you guys (I'm pretty sure "guys" is a gender neutral term but if it's not, pretend I said "people") are good friends, I'm sure they won't let this get in the way of your friendship.
I know it's hard to apologize and admit that you were wrong. It puts you in a vulnerable position and, if you're anything like me, makes you uncomfortable. If you can't say it outloud, leave them a note. I believe in you and am sending good vibes from here.
Good luck,
A CBer

I know this is late, I meant to respond but then *school* and a bunch of other things happened but I'm not gonna put them here right now.
I know what that feels like. Over the summer I read a book about a girl who went on a trip after she graduated high school because she wasn't happy with what she was going to be doing in college, and I had a mental breakdown that I was going to be depressed my whole life at a job I hated or that I wasn't going to get into good enough schools and I spent 4 hours googling colleges and choosing my top ones.
You're only in middle school, right? You don't need to worry about this stuff until high school. Enjoy this while you can, because high school isn't going to be easy. Trust me, I'm in 7th grade and somehow got put in a math class that does 10th grade-level math.

Listen.
Lazerbat.
This is a completely common worry, I'm pretty sure. I worry about it all the time- I feel like I need to prove myself and get into Stanford or Harvard or some insanely difficult-to-get-in-school.
I want to be a debater.
So I searched some stuff up.
Boom. I saw Harvard Law School.
I really regret searching it up. Now every single minute of my life I'm worrying, Will I be able to get in?
The answer is, if you study hard, yes. If you're a kind hearted person, yes.
And I know you're kind hearted.
Just put in a little bit of work.
To quote Audrey Hepburn,
"Nothing is impossible. Even the word itself says 'I'm possible!'."
Remember. Enjoy life.
'Cause you'll never know which comes first, death or tomorrow.
